ANAHEIM (AP)-Tony Perez' 380-
foot home run in the 15th inning
of the longest baseball All-Star
game ever played gave the Na-
tional League a record fifth
straight victory over the American
League 2-1 last night.
The Cincinnati Reds' third base-
man sent the sellout crowd of
46,309 home for a late dinner when
he blasted a pitch by Kansas
City's Catfish Hunter into the
bleachers in left field.
It was a tense battle of fine
pitching that broke all records
for strikeouts in All-Star play
with a total of 30. The twilight
game started in searing 91-degree
heat and ended in the cool of a
fine California evening.
Allen Horne Run
Rich Allen of the Philadelphia
Phillies smashed a home run off
Minnesota's Dean Chance in the
second inning, and Brooks Rob-
inson of Baltimore evened matters
with a homer off Chicago's Fer-
guson Jenkins in the sixth inning
for the only scores until the 15th.
The longest previous All-Star
game went 14 innings at Chica-
go's Comiskey Park in 1950 and
it, too, was broken up by a hom-
er. Red Schoendienst, now man-
ager of the St. Louis Cardinals,
was the slugging hero of that
game of 17 summers ago.
This was the fifth extra-in-
ning game of the 38 game series.
The National has won all five
and holds a 20-17-1 edge in a
competition once dominated by the
American League.
Used 7 Pitchers
Walter Alston, the National
League manager from Los Ange-
les, used seven of his eight pitch-
ers and came up with a winner
from his own staff in Don Drys-
dale. Claude Osteen, the other
Dodger on the team, was the only
man who didn't crack the Nation-
al lineup.
To put the icing on the cake,
Alston brought in Tom Seaver of
the New York Mets to pitch the
last inning. The rookie walked a
man but ended with a flourish by
striking out pinch hitter Ken Ber-
ry of the Chicago White Sox after
three hours and 41 minutes of
play.
. The first All-Star game played
in this handsome triple-decked $24
million stadium was completely
dominated by the pitching, except
for those three home run blasts,
all by third basemen,
Willie Mays of San Francisco, a
sixth-inning pinch batter went
hitless in four trips in his first

non-starting role since 1956. Mic-
key Mantle of the New York Yan-
kees, received a tremendous stand-
ing ovation when he pinch hit
in the fifth but he too was called
out on strikes.
Hunter, permitted to work more
than the standard three innings
when the game went into overtime,
was in his fifth inning when
Perez's blast tagged him with the
defeat.
Roberto Clemete of Pittsburgh,
one of the finest hitters in all
baseball, set a record by striking'
out four straight times after open-
ing with a single. Several players
had wiffed three times in an All-
Star game but Roberto topped
them all.
Fielding Plays
Tony Coniglitro of the Boston
Red Sox contributed the two spec-
tacular fielding plays of the long
day, He ran into right center to
make a one-handed stab on Or-
lando Cepeda of St, Louis in the
10th and raced back to the wall
to grab Cepeda's long drive in the
15th, a few seconds before Perez
ruined the day for the American
League fans.
Drysdale, a star of the rival
Dodgers, was booed by the An-

game. The announcement that he
was the winning pitcher brought
more catcalls from the customers.
Allen, the Phillies' third base-
man, rode a 1-1 pitch by Chance
about 400 feet into the bleachers
in right center in the second.
Marichal, Jenkins Star
Juan Marichal of San Fran-
cisco and Jenkins had been mak-
ing the American Leagues roll
over and play dead until Robin-
son connected for his 366-foot
homer off Jenkins in the sixth.
Jenkins, incidently, tied a rec-
ord with six strikeouts in his
three-inning stint. The old record
for total strikeouts in a game was
20 in 1955 in 12 innings.
There were no errors in the
game. The closest call caine when
Hank Aaron started late and
tried for a shoestring catch on
Carl Yastrzemski in the fifth. It
was ruled a double, the first of
three hits for the Red Sox left
fielder.
Perfect Innings
Almost lost in the shuffle were
the three perfect innings .pitched
by Chicago's Gary Peters for the
American from the sixth through
the eighth.
Manager Hank Bauer of Balti-
more, the American League skip-
per, said, "They had some good,
pitching thrown at them. Perez
Just caught the ball-boom. Conig-
liaro's catches were great and
maybe saved the game at the
time."
"When I hit it I knew it was
out," said Perez, whose wife and
14-month-old son, Victor, were in
the stands.
Best Pitching
Alston commented, "Possibly it
was overall the best pitching in
any All-Star game I've seen. You'd
have a hard time picking the best
one today.",
Brooks Robinson lined a foul
ball down the left field line in
the 13th that some press box ob-
servers thought was ticked by
third baseman Perez in fair ter-
ritory but on-the-scene observers
said there was no argument.
"I thought it might have flick-
ed off his glove," said Robinson.

NATIONAL LEAGUE ALL-STARS pose prior to taking the field
against the American League team. Tony Perez's 'home run in
the 15th inning, the longest All-Star game in history, decided the
contest after 32 hours of play.
